The Theorem of Iterates for elliptic and non-elliptic Operators

Abstract

We introduce a new approach for the study of the Problem of Iterates using the theory on general ultradifferentiable structures developed in the last years. Our framework generalizes many of the previous settings including the Gevrey case and enables us, for the first time, to prove non-analytic Theorems of Iterates for non-elliptic differential operators. In particular, by generalizing a Theorem of Baouendi and Metivier we obtain the Theorem of Iterates for hypoelliptic analytic operators of principal type with respect to several non-analytic ultradifferentiable structures.
